Please read the following letter form Dr. Roland

 

NEI District Assembly 2020
Dear NEI District Family,


On 7/27 we will be sending out an email with the District Assembly Book which has copies of all 
the reports for the assembly. Please read through these reports and print a copy to bring with you 
to the assembly in order to vote on the approval of each one. We will not be printing copies to 
distribute this year so you will need to study this copy you are receiving. Pastors can help their 
delegates to know what to look for and the important reports to read. It would even be helpful 
Pastor if you printed out hard copies to give to your delegates.
The District Assembly is scheduled for Saturday, August 8th at Shiloh Park. The doors will open for 
your arrival at 8 AM and we will begin the assembly promptly at 9 AM and anticipate concluding 
around 1 PM unless we get hung up voting. You may need to bring a snack to tide you over in that 
case.  Due to the COVID-19 Virus and the protocols stipulated by Governor Holcomb, we will be 
complying with the regulations the state has mandated as follows:
•    There are those who are very concerned about this virus and those who are not. We are 
requesting that everyone respect others by practicing safe distancing and the use of facial 
coverings and even gloves. Facial Coverings will be expected as per the dictates of the governor 
and we will have masks for those who are without them. When a person is not in a safe distancing 
space, masks should be worn especially in one on one conversations. We will not shake hands but 
will bump elbows in friendship. Seating will be safe distanced per individual who is not part of 
one family unit.
•   There WILL NOT be a meal served at noon nor refreshments served at any time. No coffee or 
snacks, and the water fountains will be unavailable.  WE WILL furnish bottled water and a breakfast 
bar in each packet to help anyone in need of something.
•    The main entrance to the tabernacle will be one way “IN” and each will have to exit out the 
side doors.
•   We ask that we not congregate in the restrooms and that we keep our distances in the group 
gatherings as well.
•    Seating in the tabernacle is limited to 250 safe distanced so we will also use as overflow for 
those uncomfortable with coming inside, seating under the Pavilion and in Graeflin Hall. A live 
feed video will be available in each of those venues. Seating will be on a first come first serve 
basis.
The assembly will be live streamed so that those at home can watch with anticipation. The 
live streaming can be found on the District website, neinazarene.org
•    Your attendance as a delegate will be certified by your pastor. We will not have a 
registration table
and will be trusting that only duly elected delegates certified by their pastor 
will be voting.
•    The anticipated voting bar will include the front two thirds of the tabernacle, and the front 
half of the Pavilion and Graeflin Hall.

•    We will begin at 9 AM and conduct the business of the assembly in a condensed fashion.
The election of the new District Superintendent will be a priority. A delegate packet will be in 
place at each chair. The DAC has worked hard, researching and interviewing possible candidates for 
consideration and will have at least two names for your consideration. Names and backgrounds will 
be provided in your delegate packet as well as a live presentation by the DAC recommending the 
candidates and why
. Also, in the packet will be a pencil which will be necessary for you to mark 
your ballot in the voting.
•    Following the business session and the election, we will have a brief break and then start the 
ordination service where we will highlight three ordinands and six couples retiring from a life of 
ministry. There will be no ministers choir nor will the elders be gathered around the ordinand as 
the General Superintendent lays hands on them
.  At the conclusion, opportunity will be provided for 
friends and family to go to them in a congratulatory fashion on their way out the side doors.
•    This assembly comes at a critical time for the district and the nation. Please spend time now 
praying and fasting for the Holy Spirit to have His way in all we do. Let us pray a special 
anointing on our new district leader and the NEI District Family.
Excited about the prospects,
David G. Roland
 

What does social distancing mean?

Social distancing, also called “physical distancing,” means keeping space between yourself and other people outside of your home. To practice social or physical distancing: Stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arms' length) from other people.
